First Memory

[memoryofmyself]

[ And the direct opposite of Luca, Ritsuka looks more bothered than plain confused at the sudden change of scenery.

He refuses to stay in one place, shivering and somewhat wet as he paces around the Entranceway, apparently debating if he should venture out or not.

The re-teen fiddles with the key around his neck, nervous but doing his best to look

...Order? Are you some kind of royalty, sir?

[memoryofmyself]

No, I'm not. It's-- Don't worry about it.

Do you know anyone by those names?

[orhaldi]

I would like to know how I should address you, is why I ask.

Ah-- no, I can't say I do. I haven't been here long, though.

[memoryofmyself]

My name is Aoyagi Ritsuka.

He's probably not here if no one knows him, then.

[orhaldi]

Well, it seems like new people keep coming all the time. He might show up soon.

[memoryofmyself]

Is there some kind of pattern to it?

[orhaldi]

I..haven't really noticed one, but I came here only a couple weeks ago.

[memoryofmyself]

Alright. Have you seen anyone else with ears walking around? [ because the concept of not everyone having ears even if they're a virgin hasn't...quite hit him yet. ]

[orhaldi]

...? You mean like the cat ears on your head? No, I can't say I have.

[memoryofmyself]

So it's all adults in this city then? Figures.

[orhaldi]

Adults...?

[Confused look. What do cat ears have to do with adults?]

No, I've seen some children around, as well.

[memoryofmyself]

You said you haven't seen anyone with ears, so there can't be kids here.

[orhaldi]

...?

[Just...asks.]

What do ears have to do with being a child?

[memoryofmyself]

[ ...

what ]

...You're seriously asking that?

[orhaldi]

...Ah... yes? I don't think I've ever seen anyone with ears like that.

[memoryofmyself]

All of the kids here should have them.

It's-- only adults should have lost their ears.
